.CAPITAL MARKET DEVELOPMENTS
IN THE UNITED STATES
Corporate and municipal bond markets. Public offerings
of corporate securities are expected to be small again this week,
with a $40 million debenture offering of Panhandle Eastern Pipeline Company accounting for more than half of the total. In sharp
contrast, the supply of new municipal bonds--which has been below
average in each of the last three weeks--will reach its heaviest
weekly volume since the mid-Fifties. Individual issues of $105
and $85 million of New York City and New York State, respectively,
are the largest on the schedule.

1/ Federal Reserve estimates based upon published reports of
issues sold and scheduled for offering; corporate rights
offerings are included as of the date subscription rights expire.
Underwriters experienced little difficulty in distributing
last week's only large corporate bond issue--a $30 million bank
holding company offering which reached the market via negotiation.
At the same time, yields firmed as underwriters succeeded in
reducing their already light inventories of unsold, recentlyissued bonds.
In the municipal market, the light supply of new issues,
for the third week in succession, enabled dealers to reduce their
inventories of unsold securities to their lowest level since
early January. Some of this cutback can probably be attributed to
dealer acquisitions for possible future price mark-ups. Yields
on seasoned issues changed little.
Mortgage yields and conventional mortgage terms. Home
mortgage markets in September showed a few more signs of a less
easy tone. Secondary market yields on FHA-insured 30-year mortgages
at 5.46 per cent, edged up for the second consecutive month, but
remained within the 5.44-5.46 range held since early 1963.

Contract interest rates for conventional first mortgages
on new homes in September, however, were unchanged at their earlier
reduced average level of 5.80 per cent, according to Federal Housing
Administration opinion reports which are rounded to the nearest
five basis points. Comparable rates on loans for existing home
purchase held at the higher 5.90 per cent level attained in August.
The yield spread favoring mortgages narrowed slightly
further in September, since rates on corporate bonds showed more
upward movement than mortgage rates.
In August, average loan amounts, loan-to-price ratios,
and maturities on first mortgages on both new and existing homes
were all slightly less liberal than in July, as shown in Exhibit F
Part IV. But contract interest rates remained little changed, while
average fees and charges were a bit lower, according to the FHLBBFDIC series.

Stock market credit. Total customers' credit in the stock
market rose $162 million during September. Most of this gain was
attributable to an increase of $108 million in customers' debit
balances (except on U.S. Government securities). And practically
all of this increase can be accounted for by debits arising from
the lag in clearing of transactions during the last week of
September when trading volume ballooned to over 8.0 million shares
a day. Moreover, data on debits in margin accounts for a sample of
margin customers (collected monthly by the New York Stock Exchange
from selected member firms) indicated no increase in debit balances
in margin accounts. Bank loans to others than brokers and dealers
rose $54 million.
Borrowings of member firms of the New York Stock Exchange
on customers' collateral, on the other hand, fell $130 million in
September. Customers' free credit balances jumped $176 million.
More detailed information on changes in stock market credit in
recent months are shown in the table on the following page.
Stock prices. Standard and Poor's index of 500 stocks
rose on balance last week to close at a new all-time high of
91.38 on October 15. Trading volume averaged 8.9 million shares
a day, the largest weekly average since early June 1962.
More detailed information concerning recent capital
market developments is presented in the attached exhibits.

Note: With the exception of bank loan data, figure# ere reported to the tfew York Stock
Exchange by member firms carrying margin accounts. Bank loans to other# than brokers and
dealers for purchasing and carrying securities are for weekly reporting member banks. Net
debit balances and customer free credit balances are as of the end of the month; bank loans
and money borrowed are reported for the list Wednesday of the month. Numbers in parenthesis
denote month of year. All figures exclude credits on, or to carry, U.S. Govt, securities.
1/ November 1963 data on customers' net debit balances do not include accounts carried by
a large former member firm in liquidation; most of these accounts have been transferred to
other member firms and are reported in their debit figures from the month received (some in
December, more in January 1964). Debit balance totals for the period from October 1963
through January 1964, therefore, are not completely comparable.

For retrospective data on aggregate foreign corporate and government security
offerings in the United States see Exhibits I and J. There is no simple relationship
between the data shown in the Exhibit and that shown in Exhibits I and J because the
latter includes privately placed securities in the period in which funds are actually
tak&ndown but only in the amount of takedown while the placements shown in this exhibit are included when reported, frequently with little or no information concerning timing of takedowns. Full or partial takedowns may take place both prior
and subsequent to the date a placement is reported.
